There's still people working on it especially, I think, in Japan. Do a Google search and you'll get plenty of hits. One of the original problems was, where have all the neutrons gone? The problem is that the fusion of 2 deuterons should give helium-3 and a neutron. As far as I recall, these neutrons were never found. (If they had been there, I definitely would have left the room!). I remember at the time that Harwell tried to detect them (and if anyone was capable of detecting them, Harwell was), but failed. As work is still continuing, I assume that some method of explaining this away must have been found.
